Sailing in Stockholm Sweden September 2008

A sailing competition organised by SAS Yachtclub and 8 members of the Watersportvereniging Schiphol (WVS) departed on Friday 12 September 2008 to Stockholm, Sweden to participate. Upon arrival, we were welcomed by Peter Melander and he took us by car to the hostel in the middle of the city.

After the bags were dropped, we could use Peter's motorboat to sail around the city. Before that, we first visited the Vasa museum to see the world's only survived 17th-century ship.
After that visit, we made the boat tour around the city in beautiful sunny weather and finished it off with beers and snacks.

Saturday the day of sailing on the J92 and a competition is between SAS, Austrian Airlines and KLM.
In total 6 teams. After 7 races and a final race, on 1st place SAS, 2nd KLM, 3rd KLM, 4th, Austrian, 5th SAS, 6th SAS.

Good results for both KLM teams and an exellent weekend in Sweden and well organised and hosted by the SAS Yachtclub.

3rd spot for our team...Sailors: Arjen, Elske, Peter and Ger.
